Did you take the sellers word that it is a 1918 ? $13 is no big loss but I would have never Bought that coin even if I needed an 18-D for anything over 25¢ .

Low VG, very possibly Details. Tough to judge surfaces. Possible ED, and reverse has a rim hit at K2. See what in hand pics bring.

I'm with T-Bop no bueno photos are too blurry to see any date at all. Just to show you what we are seeing (in case you have a cached photo loading from memory possibly) here is a direct screenshot I made no retouching or anything.

Here are the digits in the seller's pics.  And here is the blow up date in the in-hand pics.

New pics I'll say VG10 straight grade. Close to Fine territory, but I think the reverse flatness and overall surfaces keep it to VG.
Regardless, nice pickup NS! I'd take this one all day for $13!
